BACKGROUND

I joined our family run business in 2010 and have been passionate about helping UK based businesses grow and thrive ever since. My previous history involved working in Recruitment and Business Development.

MY ROLE

Having originally joined to help on the new business side of things, over the years I became more and more involved on the day to day operations side of the business. My role as Director was made official in 2013. I now undertake an all-round role which still includes new business development and promoting the business via networking (my favourite part) but also marketing, overseeing people development (including the recruitment and induction process), facilities management, financial management and overall responsibility for the business vision and direction.

My main aim in my role is to create an environment within the business which looks after our clients and develops our people. We strongly encourage everyone to take charge of their personal development.

Being involved in the local business community is very important to me and as such I have taken on board roles for Worcestershire Advance and the Worcestershire Local Enterprise Partnership Business Board. I value these roles as an opportunity to give back to the local business community as well and widen my networks and increase my knowledge of issues facing SME businesses. As a business we work prominently with SME’s and feel we are in a good position to understand their requirements and ensure we offer the very best service we can.

PERSONAL

I love to travel and have visited many places including Australia, Sri Lanka, Maldives, Florida, California, Miami, New York, Singapore, Barcelona, Egypt and Greece. I live in Worcester, with my Bichon Frise Harry and Cockapoo Holly. I love testing out the culinary delights Worcester has to offer – a favourite being Sugo Italian on the Tything.
